Yes, you'll have to drop the transmission to change the clutch. Get a Factory Service Manual (FSM) (Here for free > http://www.iluvmyrx7.com/ )
Good luck.

You can change the clutch by pulling the engine. Most people drop the tranny unless they are doing something else at the same time. For example: If you needed to replace your oil pan seal, and your clutch was also bad, you might choose to pull the engine and do both at the same time.
